Polygonum minus has been reported to contain valuable metabolites and to date, there is no report on using cell culture technique for metabolite production in P. minus. Naphthalene acetic acid (NAA) concentrations in the range of 2–6 mg L-1 were used in a matrix of combinations with dichlorophenoxyacetic acid (2,4-D) concentrations in the range of 2–10 mg L-1 as plant growth regulators (PGRs) to induce callus cultures. Media that were supplemented with 2 mg L-1 2,4-D + 4 mg L-1 NAA, 2 mg L-1 2,4-D + 6 mg L-1 NAA and 6 mg L-1 2,4-D + 8 mg L-1 NAA were effective for callus induction (93.3 % of the explants produced callus). To establish cell culture, the best growth was obtained from medium that was supplemented with 1 mg L-1 2,4-D + 2 mg L-1 NAA. From a 1-g inoculum size, the fresh weight increases exponentially after 5–10 days of culture, and a 26.71 g maximum fresh weight was obtained after 25 days of culture. The cell culture medium was then analyzed using gas chromatography–mass spectrometry (GC–MS). Jasmonic acid (100, 50, 25 and 5 μM), salicylic acid (100, 50, 25 and 5 μM), yeast extract (500, 250 and 100 mg L-1) and glass beads were used in this research as elicitors. The cell cultures were then incubated with the different elicitors for 1, 2, 3 and 4 days. Several compounds with high peak area percentages were detected, including 2-furancarboxaldehyde, 5-hydroxymethyl, furfural, and 2-cyclopenten-1- one, 2-hydroxy. These results show the diversity of metabolites released by P. minus cell into the culture medium under control conditions.
Elicitation, the plant-based biotechnology approach that utilizes the ability of plant roots to absorb and secrete a vast variety of bioactive compounds, was studied on Polygonum minus using jasmonic acid (JA) as an elicitor. To understand the overall molecular responses of P. minus roots to JA induction, a subtracted cDNA library was constructed using the suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) method. From a total of 1,344 randomly selected colonies, 190 clones were shown to be differentially expressed using Reverse Northern hybridization. BLAST analysis revealed that clones were similar to genes associated with the biosynthesis of aromatic compounds through the oxylipin pathway, such as alcohol dehydrogenase and lipoxygenase. Putative clones involved in the shikimate pathway, including S-adenosyl-L-methionine synthetase and S-adenosyl-L-homocysteine hydrolase, were identified with predicted roles in phenylpropanoids’ biosynthesis. Genes responding to abiotic stress unique to JA elicitation, such as ELI3-1, glutathione S-transferase and peroxidase 1, were also identified. The kelch-repeat containing F-box family protein, a possible transcription factor in response to JA elicitation was also found. The results of the RT-PCR showed that the eight selected clones were strongly up-regulated, except for lipoxygenase, which showed a slightly higher expression of the transcript levels in response to the JA elicitation.
To identify salt-responsive genes, we constructed a cDNA subtractive library from a salt-tolerant rice cultivar, MR219. Treatments of the whole plant were carried out with 150 mM sodium chloride for 0, 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 h. The extraction of total RNA from 14-day-old seedlings was conducted on the shoots and roots of both treated and untreated plants. The treated plants were utilized as ‘drivers’ while the untreated plants were utilized as ‘testers’. Equal amounts of the extracted total RNA from the 12 samples were pooled together and subjected to mRNA isolation. A reverse transcription of tester and driver cDNAs from the mRNA of two pools of the samples was conducted. In total, 300 clones were sequenced and analysed using bioinformatics tools. The 260 high-quality sequences were assembled and 83 contigs and 42 singletons were generated, producing a total of 125 UTs. The majority of the UTs showed significant homology with sequences in the NCBI database. A total of 330 gene ontology terms were grouped into three categories, of which 144 UTs fell under biological process, 108 fell under cellular component and 78 fell under molecular function. Also, RT-PCR was utilized to substantiate the elevation in expression of six candidate genes ((MR219SAP8 (JZ532324) and salT (JZ532363), low molecular weight heat shock (JZ532334), phospholipid hydroperoxide glutathione (JZ532371), Acetamidase (JZ532408), Ferredoxin- 1 and chloroplastic (JZ532374)) subjected to salinity stress at varying timepoints.
